FILMWERKSTATT 2025 – Call for application open!
Are you interested in documentary film? Have you always wanted to shoot your own film? Then the 12-day ethnocineca film workshop is just right for you.
From the April 30th until may 11th we invite you to the Creative Cluster in Vienna to explore the documentary genre together with international filmmakers and anthropologists. After five days of professional input and discussions about how to tell a personally or politically relevant story, participants will produce their own documentary films in teams. This year we are particularly looking forward to lectures by Estonian filmmaker Anna Hints, visual anthropologist Sanderien Verstappen and director of photography Serafin Spitzer. The workshop languages will be English (proficiency is a prerequisite) and German (proficiency beneficial). We will also for the first time be considering applications from non-German speakers.
You want to be part of it? Apply by 28.02.2025. You can find more information about the film workshop and how to apply in the information sheet. If you have questions contact us at: fws@ethnocineca.at We look forward to your applications.

FILMWERKSTATT 2025 – GENERAL INFORMATION
Good news, the Filmwerkstatt will take place again in May 2025. You’ll find more details soon here, on our social media accounts and our newsletter. Stay tuned!
The Filmwerkstatt is a unique workshop for people interested in documentary film in Austria combining theoretical and practical approaches in 12 intensive days. Renowned international filmmakers, visual anthropologists and other experts share their insight. Together we try equipment, critically engage with the medium and playfully explore its limitations. The short films produced by the participants in small groups will premiere during the festival on the big cinema screen.
We value respectful exchange to learn from each other. We are looking forward to participants from diverse professional, social and cultural backgrounds with or without prior relevant knowledge. Two places are reserved for people who can’t afford the participation fees.
